The Traders Advocacy Group Ghana (TAGG) is urging all members of the trading community to get the Covid-19 vaccine in order to prevent the virus from spreading.
There are currently over 12,000 active cases of the pandemic in Ghana.
It will be recalled that some restrictions including a lockdown were introduced as a preventive measure when the virus first broke in the country.
President of TAGG, David Amoateng, stated that the reintroduction of such measures could be detrimental for the trading community as it continues to grapple with the impact of the pandemic hence his call for his members to ensure they take the jabs as soon as possible.TAGG
He stated that “If the government brings in any news strategy or plans that will close the markets we will be well affected and we will be badly hit. So we will entreat all traders especially our members to take the COVID-19 vaccines and forget about what people are saying.”
“As I speak to you, I have taken the two jabs.” He added.
All markets were closed and disinfected during the peak of the pandemic 2 years ago.
This meant a halt in business for traders who were already dealing with the impact the pandemic had on the economy in general.
